AC Motor Controller
dACi® Series F Inverter

The dACi® Series F inverter is designed to be used on

single drive or dual drive traction systems and for
pump actuation. Together, with Danfoss induction
motors type TSA, the motors and inverters are
matched and optimized to achieve best
performances.

The Danfoss inverter, dACi® Series F, leaves amble

space for other components on your application.
Series F is among the smallest inverters available on
the market. Still, it is packed with the latest in inverter
technology. For example, it features CAN-based
communication for optimized machine control and
includes a new driver board that manages all external
devices – including horns, valves, and electro-
mechanical brakes – thereby securing easy and cost-
effective wiring. It is also designed with AmpSeal
connector, and Insulated Metal Substrate (IMS)
technology.

Features

• CAN-based communication for

optimized machine control
• AmpSeal connector for enhanced
machine reliability
• IMS technology for improved power
control
• Setup via CAN bus or Windows based
via laptop
